Former president Goodluck Jonathan’s advisor Reno Omokri referred to Peter Obi, the candidate for president of the Labour Party, as an IPOB-compliant candidate, BRANDNEWSDAY report.
Speaking on Politics Today on Channels TV, Omokri declared that Obi was ineligible to run for government and that he would never make a decent leader.

According to Omokri, Obi lacks political wisdom for campaigning to Nigerians abroad who can not vote.
He said, “IPOB had a sit at home yesterday (Tuesday) and Obidients who holds meetings every day decided to obey the order yesterday, Peter Obi complies with this order too. This shows that they are observing IPOB more than our constitution.“
Obi, according to Omokri, is a political paperweight who will only get support from the country’s South-East.
